Awareness and intelligence drive Perkins' game. He gets open for chances, skates his routes to create openings for teammates, and pickpockets opponents. Instead of relying on overwhelming pressure, he uses subtle nudges and well-timed pokes and stick lifts to win possession. From there, he looks to the slot for a pass, connecting off either side of his blade. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
